Pay drivers

This system would be good for poor teams but to balance it out you could let them be 1 or 2 talent and to get the bonus money, make them do a few races and cannot be trained until the season is over and you want to hire them and maybe have a pay driver be like a high talent once in awhile.

This is a pretty cool suggestion.

As the new version of iGP matures, I'd like to see a dynamic that involves pay drivers, as well as drivers who attract certain sponsors and income by bringing them onboard. For non-pay drivers bringing sponsors and money, it wouldn't have to be much, no more than a couple hundred thousand dollars/pounds per race. Pay drivers on the other hand, should be fairly garbage in talent, with no room for developing their attributes, and in turn bring up to no more than half a million to a million per race.

Nice but you left out some pay drivers will only join your team if you use a certain supplier. Bit like Maldonado you must use this fuel or me and the money walks.
